I have done a localization of sunbird 0.3a1 (build 20051103).
The files from calendar.jar:locale/de-DE/calendar are attached.

Reproducible: Always

mvl, can I check this locale into calendar/resources/locale and activate it's build in jar.mn?
I don't know the status for de-AT but it seems to be very outdated. Should it be removed?

Attachment: archive for l10n cvs

This is my proposed structure for DE locale in l10n CVS. It has been tested with my current changes to sunbird. I think it's ready for checkin.

I just looked at the files and noticed:
- all headers, comments and localization notes were removed from files
- entities are no longer sort by logical coherence but by name
Is this intended? 
It makes me think that it would be harder for further updates this way.

It shouldn't be. The structure of the .dtd and .properties files should remain as is (to make them more readable and easier to work with) and they should retain all comments, localization notes and especially the license header.

AFAIK KaiRo wants to polish the locale anyway.

Exactly, and what comment #5 says should be OK in the version I'l check into the L10n repository once the L10n situation has been cleared up and Pike has given an OK for proceeding. BTW, on trunk we use "de" for German in all products that allow the "source L10n" stuff, so we'll stick with that (no de-DE/de-AT).

[Wolfgang Rosenauer [:wolfiR]]

The currently checked in codes misses a contents.rdf file.
So if anyone makes changes, please add such a file.

Attachment: update cvs l10n de

This is an update of the calendar files for the de locale as at 2006-05-14.

This may help to test the cvs l10n with an up-to-date locale.

The structure and license headers will be restored with the next patch. Maybe for 0.3b.

A complete set of German (de) calendar files is in /l10n now, Thorsten and me will work together on some fine-tuning to it, but everything should build and work.
